Indeed, it seems that locust capture of the Lion does not set the 'iron lion' flag. Counterstrike through locust capture is forbidden, though.

Good catch!

[Edit] In the I.D. the AI does this correctly. But the problem is caused by the way the latest user move is passed to the AI. This derives the move from the origin and destination highlights, so it completely misses any locust capture.
